It's long overdue and most welcome: veteran science fiction writer Judith Merril at last has her own, complete collection in Homecalling And Other Stories (188677-854X, $29.00), packing in all her short fiction from her 1948 classic 'That Only A Mother' to novellas and short stories written over the next two decades. Merrill's works have been widely scattered over the decades: all emphasize powerful characterization and strong women. Homecalling is a 'must' for any who have read some of her selections and hunger for more. L. Sprague de Camp's Years In The Making: The Time-travel Stories Of L. Sprague De Camp (1886778477, $25.00) is also a delight long overdue: DeCamp's best time travel and alternate history stories also have been widely scattered and lost among his other works, so to find them conveniently under one cover is a delight.
